How do you create a .exe file on Win32 which contains the perl dll?
If I simply create the obvious "Hello, world." program in test.pl and
then run
pp -o test.exe test.pl
then I find that the resulting test.exe can't be run on a system without
perl installed because it requires the perl58.dll.
I tried adding the dll using
pp -o test.exe -l C:\perl5\bin\perl58.dll test.pl
or
pp -o test.exe -a C:\perl5\bin\perl58.dll test.pl
but the dll still can't be found.
I logged this on CPAN/RT some time ago (ticket 7829), but have had no reply.
It seems like a rather fundamental error to me. Surely this needs fixing?
